Platinum(II) and palladium(II) complexes analogous to oxaliplatin with different cyclohexyldicarboxylate isomeric anions and their in vitro antitumour activity. Structural elucidation of [Pt(C2O4)(cis-dach)]

Several new Pt^II and Pd^II complexes bearing the enantiomerically pure (1R,2R)-(–)-l,2-cyclohexanediamine (dach) ligand, of general formula [MX₂{(1R,2R)-dach}], where M = Pt or Pd, X₂ = cis- or trans- or (1R,2R)-1,2-cyclohexyldicarboxylate anions, have been synthesized and characterized physicochemically and spectroscopically. These complexes have been screened in vitro against the three tumour cell lines K₅₆₂, HeLa and L₉₂₉, and the results obtained were compared with those of the reference standards, cisplatin, carboplatin and oxaliplatin; the known antitumour drugs. The single crystal X-ray structure determination of the [Pt(C₂O₄)(cis-dach)] complex has been discussed and compared with that of oxaliplatin, [Pt(C₂O₄){(1R,2R)-dach}].

Synthese,Struktur und Reaktivität von Tris‐, Bis‐ und Mono(2,4‐dimethylpentadienyl)‐Komplexen des Neodyms,Lanthans und des Yttriums

The tris(2,4‐dimethylpentadienyl) complexes [Ln(η⁵‐Me₂C₅H₅)₃] (Ln = Nd, La, Y) are obtained analytically pure by reaction of the tribromides LnBr₃·nTHF with the potassium compound K(Me₂C₅H₅)(thf)_n in THF in good yields. The structural characterization is carried out by X‐ray crystal structure analysis and NMR‐spectroscopically. The tris complexes can be transformed into the dimeric bis(2,4‐dimethylpentadienyl) complexes [Ln₂(η⁵‐Me₂C₅H₅)₄X₂] (Ln, X: Nd, Cl, Br, I; La, Br, I; Y, Br) by reaction with the trihalides THF solvates in the molar ratio 2:1 in toluene. Structure and bonding conditions are determined for selected compounds by X‐ray crystal structure analysis and NMR‐spectroscopically in general. The dimer‐monomer equilibrium existing in solution was investigated NMR‐spectroscopically in dependence of the donor strength of the solvent and could be established also by preparation of the corresponding monomer neutral ligand complexes [Ln(η⁵‐Me₂C₅H₅)₂X(L)] (Ln, X, L: Nd, Br, py; La, Cl, thf; Br, py; Y, Br, thf). Finally the possibilities for preparation of mono(2,4‐dimethylpentadienyl)lanthanoid(III)‐dibromid complexes are shown and the hexameric structure of the lanthanum complex [La₆(η⁵‐Me₂C₅H₅)₆Br₁₂(thf)₄] is proved by X‐ray crystal structure analysis.
